Makeup Expert Tips: How to get THE perfect lip look?

All of us long for those perfect luscious lips ala Angelina Jolie. But short of plastic surgery, how do we get that look? Our resident make-up artist has the secret…

First: Moisturize

Before you apply lipstick, it is best to condition your lips. You don’t want cracked lips to distract from your carefully applied lipstick. Apply a good lip prep — ColorMeHappy’s Lip Softening Mask will do the trick.

Second: Outline

Lets face it, the edges of our lips may not be perfect. So, use a lip liner to define your edges. For those with thin lips, you can put it just on top of your lip line. For those with naturally thick lips, put the liner just inside it. It will create the perfect lip curve to make every movement sexier. ColorMeHappy has a range of Lip Contours in 5 gorgeous colors.

Third: Color

Apply lipstick first to your bottom lip. Make sure you don’t go beyond the lip pencil line. Pay careful attention to the corners of your mouth to make sure you don’t miss out that spot. Our model, Aerin, wears ColorMeHappy’s Boldlicious Sunset Orange lipstick. Its the limited edition high-definition lipstick with high impact colors. This gives maximum color impact for a real wow!

Last: Gloss

Add on the special spark with ColorMeHappy’s Lip Shimmer! Apply lightly over your lips and it will make your lips really pop.
